I would not put it on the back, too much weight and sway.
I have the same carrier and have a front hitch. I have carried my 300 lb bike over 6000 miles on the front with no issues. You just need to clean the bugs off before you ride. See sig below.
X2 Been doing it up front fo years and works great, yes the bugs are the only problem, but only on one side. For less than $100 you can put a hitch up front and keep a eye on it and no problem with using your back door. It's a no brainer in my book.And no extension which cuts your load by 50%.
